Valspar

Setting Sail

V028-2

Valspar Setting Sail is a saturated aqua-teal with a fresh blue-green balance. It feels bright and modern. The shade suits bathroom vanities, laundry rooms, porch ceilings, or a playful kitchen island.

Full walls need simple furnishings because the shade carries plenty of energy. Crisp white, pale stone, or warm brass keep the finish sharp. In evening light, it may look slightly greener and deeper.

Setting Sail in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
